VANILLEKIPFERLN (GERMAN ALMOND CRESCENT COOKIES)
This is an authentic German recipe that I wrote down a few years ago. I think it's from a German baking magazine. They are a must here in Germany. Very nice at Christmas. My kids gobble them up almost as fast as I make them. Try them, you won't be disappointed. Prep time does not include chilling time.
